(I like Kayla too. She seems very sweet. Rhianna, aka "Willow," is interesting too.)
I have been continuously producing deer hats these days. I find that I am getting messaged about them on Etsy a lot (sometimes for infant/adult sizes, neither of which I can do) and I am very happy to make them (for Blythe-sized heads) anytime! I currently have three yarn colorways I am continuously getting at the craft store and I'm about to start work on a fourth color option, if I can get a breath. It seems like the days are really draining away in a blur of antlers and the UPS store.
The antlers are so time-consuming to cut, sew together, stuff, and attach that I find doing them in their separate stages in batches really helps me out. I can do that while chatting online or listening to music or waiting around for something. Then sometimes I just feel like sitting around crocheting and watching TV, so I'll do two or three hats at a time that way, and they'll sit around waiting to be deer-ified.
However this week I've been slow to get any fully complete because I've been working on an embroidery/applique project!! I'm excited because I like to embroider but full projects typically take me months. But I'm quick at applique after years of Sticking Stuff Onto Other Stuff. Here's a teaser:
Have you heard about the new "middie" Blythe? I don't know a thing about 'em, but someone tweeted something about them earlier today. I followed the link - I was on my iPhone - and all I know is that it's going to be a size inbetween the neo and the petite! i couldn't read anything because it was in japanese and I just now remembered. I need to look into it! I'm excited so you better get to learning how to make middie sized Blythe hats!. ;) Oh, I can't wait to see your finished embroidery. It looks really cute so far!
ReplyDeleteYes! The Middie looks cute, although I'm not sure what I think about her yet. I need more pics and comparisons!!
